    Brinsea incubator divider

    Wanted to share my hack with you! I've been wanting a divider for my brinsea incubator, and got the idea to use Lego 😄 Easy to clean, sterilize and modify! Got a used set of a police station cheap, thought especially the pieces with the bars would be perfect for airflow. Chickjail! 😂

    Chick photography/ chickpics

    I love taking photos and my chicks have often become my subjects, it's so fun to be able to look back and see their progress and how they're growing! This time I got my hands on some props 😂 Which are some of your favorite chickpics that you've taken?

    Placing of eggs in the incubator (Brinsea Ovation 28)

    Today is lockdown, yay! I only have 13 eggs and have placed them on shelf liner in the middle of the incubator. But how do you do when you incubate at full capacity? Is it ok to put the eggs on top of the water reservoirs? Maybe a stupid question, but since the water reservoirs take up so much...

    Looking for "penpals" or chicken interested new friends 😄

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but here it goes! I don't have a lot of friends to start with, and none with chickens of their own. I'm really missing a friend I can write/talk about chickens and other stuff with 😄 I live in Norway in the countryside with my bf, dog and (for the moment)...

    Polish (possibly Polish/Showgirl mix)

    Collecting eggs from my hens to put in the incubator the 5th or 6th of January! I'm so excited! This is sort of just a test run, to see what I actually get 😅 I'm planning to separate the polish hens I want to breed and introduce only the polish rooster I want to father for a later hatch, but...

    My bantam naked neck greeneggers 😆

    My first own mix hens just laid their first eggs, and I am so amazed at how they turned out (both hens and eggs)! Just needed to share 🥰

    Hatching anxiety 😅

    My second hatch in an incubator, today is day 19! 14 eggs made it to lockdown, 7 shipped polish bantam and 7 of my own NN silkies 🙂 But the wait is such torture! How do you all handle it? I'm not doing it well 😂

    What have I accidentally created?

    This is my almost five week old chick, mix between Showgirl/NN silkie roo and a greenegger bantam hen. What would you call this kind of color/pattern? Will be interesting to see what the little one grows into!

    Granli's new little Polish peeps!

    So I finally got my little Polish bantam chickens that I've longed for! Postal eggs, 6 purebred Paduan in a mixed color group (gold laced and chamois), and 6 Paduan/Vithätta mix. Fun fact, in Sweden and Norway they are considered different breeds! I understand that in the US they're just...

    New from Norway :)

    Last year I finally made the dream come true and moved to a small farmstead here in Norway, and of course got me some chickens asap! :D With me on the move is my bf and my dog, a Chinese Crested dog named Sixten. So I'm fairly new to all this and love reading all about it, getting good tips and...
